Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour (sifted)
- 1 tablespoon rice flour (optional)
- 4 oz . (125g) baby shrimp (peeled, rinsed and pat dry )
- 4 oz . (125g) bean sprouts (rinsed)
- 2 tablespoon scallions (or chives, chopped)
- 1 large egg
- 3/4 cup water
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon fish sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon sugar
- oil (for deep-frying)
Steps
-
Combine all the ingredients, except for the oil, in a bowl and mix well.
-
The mixture may seem very dry at first, but it will eventually become slightly watery.
-
Heat a wok with enough oil for shallow frying. Once the oil is fully heated, reduce the heat to medium. Use a tablespoon to scoop up a heaping portion of the mixture and gently drop it into the wok.
-
Continue frying until the oil is 80% filled with the shrimp fritters, frying in 2-3 batches depending on the size of your wok.
-
Turn the shrimp fritters over and fry until both sides are golden brown. Remove them with a strainer, draining excess oil by placing the fritters on a dish lined with paper towels. Serve immediately with your favorite chili sauce.
